ROCKY MOUNTAIN OYSTERS RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Split the tough skin-like muscle that surrounds each "oyster" (use a sharp knife). You can also remove the skin easily if the meat is frozen and then peeled while thawing.
• Soak in a pan of salt water one hour; drain.
• Transfer to a large pot and add enough water to float the meat.
• Add the vinegar to the pot.
• Parboil, drain and rinse.
• Let cool and slice each oyster into 1/4 inch thick ovals.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of sliced oyster to taste.
• Combine flour, cornmeal and some garlic powder to taste.
• Roll each slice into flour mixture.
• Dip into milk.
• Roll again into flour mixture.
• Dip into wine.
• (repeat the procedure for a thicker crust).
• Fry in hot oil or fat seasoned with the bottled hot sauce to taste (be careful, it will sizzle when you add the hot sauce); fry until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Serve with cocktail sauce if desired.

Steps:

• In a bowl marinate the chicken with oyster sauce and soy sauce 10 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat, when hot add the oil, garlic and chili and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Increase the heat to high and add the chicken and cook, stirring until just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Add the basil and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
• Serve over rice.
